Summary: Bad Boys 2
Review: A film by Michael Bay

I'm almost embarrassed to say that I was entertained by this movie. I did not like the original "Bad Boys" movie, and I have seldom enjoyed much of the work of director Michael Bay. Yet, "Bad Boys II" is full of such mindless action that the movie is more entertaining than it has any right to be.

Marcus (Martin Lawrence) and Mike (Will Smith) are undercover Miami cops who are once again going after a drug Kingpin. This time it is Johnny Tapia (Jordi Molla), a drug lord who has never been convicted despite having been brought to trial many times. "Bad Boys II" brings a change to the relationship between Marcus and Mike. They had been friends since high school and partners on the police force, but there is tension. Marcus seems frazzled, burnt out, and he blames Mike. Mike has a powerful, flashy personality and Marcus feels that Mike is always getting him into some sort of trouble. He plans on transferring to another department away from Mike, but doesn't know how to tell him. Mike, for his part, has been secretly dating Marcus's younger sister Syd (Gabrielle Union). They want to tell Marcus, but worry about his reaction.

The bulk of the movie deals with the investigation of Johnny Tapia and the attempts to finally bring him down. In the process there is a ridiculous amount of action, explosions, gunplay, chase sequences, and violence. It is all very stylish, fluid, and mindlessly fun. "Bad Boys II" is not a very good movie. It is dumb with a very implausible plot which only gets more and more implausible by the end of the movie, but "Bad Boys II" is fun. For a movie as implausible as this one is, it is still an enjoyable ride right up until the last twenty minutes or so when Michael Bay proves that even this movie can go too far in stretching the bounds of credibility. Up until that point I was into the ride the movie took me on, after that point "Bad Boys II" lost me.

This is a visually impressive and stylish action movie with no substance. If that sounds good for one Saturday night out with the guys, "Bad Boys II" is a good choice. It has its place and will certainly find fans among fans of the genre. It is often a funny movie, besides the action, and that helps.

Summary: This Movie is Scorching Hot!
Review: Bad Boyz II is better than the first one. More action, more guns, and more violence than Bad Boyz I. This is also the first movie that really shows how my Haitian posse gets down for theirs.

Summary: Great sequel
Review: After almost 10 years since the first one came out tMartin & will hit the streets of Miami again to bust a huge druglord again, this time it's ecstasy. I don't understand how all the reviews said this wasn't a good movie. I loved it. These 2 have great chemistry on scrren together and they are funny as s**t. I laughed hard as hell watching this and was on the edge of my seat the whole time. It is packed with action and jokes for the almost 2 and a half hours it runs. This time they are busting a huge ecstasy dealer and when he kidnaps Marcus' (Martin's) sister (who is also Mike's (Will Smith's) girlfriend) (and she was also working undercover for the DEA w/o them knowing at first) they have to go on an "off the books" mission to Cuba to rescue her and bring down the drug kingpin. I won't get into the story to much you'll have to watch it for yourself. This is a great movie and just as good as the first one and a must have action adventure.

Summary: Bad Boys, Bad Boys, What you gonna do What you gonna do
Review: "Bad Boys II" starring Martin Lawrence and Will Smith is an action packed thrill ride that should never end. Will Smith and Martin Lawrence bring so much energy to this movie that your eyes will be glued to the television through the entire movie. This action film is about two extreme cops who are trying to stop a top drug lord, however in their quest things become too personal. Martin Lawrence's sister who is played by Gabrielle Union is also working on this deadly case with a different division of police; however her brother does not know that she is undercover until he has to save her life in a serious setup. These two cops do anything and everything that think they are bad enough to do, from shooting up a KKK rally, to blowing up cars, these cops take being police officer to another level literally.
When I first heard that "Bad Boys II" was coming out I was not too excited to see it. I was kind of biased about this one because I saw the first one. I thought that this movie was going to be like every other sequel that I have seen; I thought it would be good but lame all in the same; however when someone showed me the DVD my whole opinion changed. I first want to say that this is not a movie for children, so just in case you have this movie or you are thinking about buying it make sure that you keep it from your children. Secondly I would like to say that this movie has all the things that you would expect from a good movie. It has a workable plot, great actors, and a good director. However this is one of the longest movies I have ever seen. It is not as bad as the movie Titanic, however it is pushing it. I remember watching this movie one weekend and it made the time go by so slow because the movie was so long.
When I was watching this movie I actually started to imagine that I was one of the characters in the movie. At one point I thought I was Martin Lawrence when he was going through his anger management. That was really funny, I could never imagine going through anger management. Something like that just doesn't seem real to me, but it is. I also wanted to be Gabrielle Union because she got be with Will Smith. Ladies, I honestly think Will Smith was hotter in this movie. He was hot in his recent movie "I Robot", but in "Bad Boys II" he was just radiant. I also like this movie because I kind of like the fact that the good guys always win and the bad guys always lose. It shows me that there are some writers and directors who still believe that there are some good cops in the world and to show people this they display them in movies. To me that is excellent. This is a much see picture, if you have not seen "Bad Boys II" you are really missing out on a treat. I recommend picking a night to stay in to watch this movie.

Summary: Bad Movie
Review: I really like Will Smith and Martin Lawrence. But this movie was really not worth my time at home watching it. Sure it was about taking down a drug lord. But who gives a care about a stupid swimming pool bursting. And yet we are left to guess whether or not Marcus's daughter made it home safe and sound.

I mean sure it did have its moments where it kept me on the edge of my seat, but after a while it just kept dragging on and on. I am comtemplating returning this DVD back to the store where I bought it. I think watching it once is enough for me.
